5.1.4 Line Folding within LDIF Files<br />
To fold a line in an LDIF file, simply insert a line separator (a newline or a carriage return/newline<br />
pair) followed by a space at the place where you want the line folded. When the LDIF parser<br />
encounters a space at a beginning of the line, it knows to concatenate the rest of the data on the line<br />
with the data on the previous line. The leading space is then discarded.<br />

You should not fold lines in the middle of a multibyte UTF-8 character.<br />
The following is an example of an LDIF file with a folded line (see lines 13 and 14):<br />

5.1.5 Hashed Password Representation in LDIF Files<br />
The hashed password is represented as base64 data in the LDIF file. The attribute name<br />
userpassword should be followed with the name of the encryption used for hashing the password.<br />
This name should be given within a pair of flower brackets “{ }” as shown below:<br />
